What is Personal Information & Why Do We Collect It?

Personal information refers to any details or opinions that can identify you as an individual. This may include your name, address, email, phone number, and other contact details.

We may collect this information in various ways—such as during meetings, over the phone, through emails, via our website www.aamicohomes.com.au, or through publicly available sources and third-party services. (Only applicable methods will be used.)

We collect your personal information mainly to deliver our services, communicate with you, and share relevant updates or marketing material. Occasionally, we may also use it for closely related secondary purposes that you would reasonably expect.

You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by letting us know in writing.

Whenever we collect your information, we aim to be transparent about why it is needed and how it will be used.

Sensitive Information

Under the Privacy Act, sensitive information includes data such as your racial or ethnic background, religious beliefs, political views, health details, union memberships, or criminal history.

We will only collect or use sensitive information when:

• It is directly related to our services
• You have given us clear consent
• It is required or permitted by law

Third-Party Sources

Where possible, we prefer to collect information directly from you. However, at times we may receive information from other sources. If this happens, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you and ensure that you are aware your details were shared with us.

Sharing Your Information

We may disclose your personal information in the following cases:

• When you have given us permission
• If required or allowed by law

We do not sell or rent your information to third parties.

Protecting Your Information

We take the security of your information seriously. Your personal details are stored in a secure manner to prevent loss, misuse, or unauthorised access.

When your information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to destroy it or anonymise it—unless it is required for record-keeping, in which case it may be retained for a minimum of seven years.

Accessing & Updating Your Information

You have the right to access and update the personal information we hold about you. If you wish to do so, please contact us in writing.

Aamico Homes will not charge you for making an access request, but an admin fee may apply if you request a copy of the data.

To protect your privacy, we may need you to verify your identity before we release any information.

Keeping Your Details Accurate

We want to make sure the information we hold is correct and up to date. If you find that any of your details are incorrect or outdated, please let us know and we will fix it as soon as possible.
